[McIDAS #RYQ-556281]: nv1sae

Hi Julia,

No.

The source module for the nv1sae entry point is created from the NVXSAE
entry point in each navigation file in McIDAS.  The list of these files
is:

/home/mcidas/mcidas2006/src% ls nvx*
nvxgeos.dlm  nvxmerc.dlm  nvxmsgt.dlm  nvxsin.dlm   nvxdmsp.dlm  nvxgvar.dlm
nvxmtst.dlm  nvxmoll.dlm  nvxps.dlm    nvxtanc.dlm  nvxgmsx.dlm  nvxkalp.dlm
nvxlalo.dlm  nvxmsat.dlm  nvxradr.dlm  nvxtiro.dlm  nvxgoes.dlm
nvxlamb.dlm  nvxmsg.dlm   nvxrect.dlm  nvxairc.dlm  nvxgraf.dlm



> The closest function whose name begins with nv1s is:

> > ./mcidas2006/src/nv1sin.o
>

The McIDAS build process creates three entry points for each routine specified:
nv1sae, nv2sae, and nv3sae.  The routine name in the navigation module files
is always named nvxsae (or NVXSAE).  The build process mangles the name into
nv1sae, nv2sae, and nv3sae.  The reason for this mangling is a bit hard to
explain other than the simple comment that SSEC found it useful to have three
different interfaces to the same code.

Exactly what are you trying to accomplish?  I may be able to offer some advice
that will help you along.

Cheers,

Tom
